Contact Use of Languages Name: Carlos Varias García Principal working language: catalan (cat) Email: [email protected] Some groups entirely in English: No Some groups entirely in Catalan: Yes Some groups entirely in Spanish: No Teachers Carlos Varias García Prerequisites None Objectives and Contextualisation This optional subject of the 3rd and 4rd years of the Bachelor's Degree in Classical Studies is programmed for two mentions of this Degree: Mention in Sources for the study of the Ancient and Medieval world and Mention in Greek. Description: This course will explore the earliest readable documents in western civilization, the texts of clay tablets, sealings and labels (and a few transport vases) written in a pre-alphabetic script known as Linear B. Linear B was used by the inhabitants of the Mycenaean palatial culture of mainland Greece and the island of Crete from 1400 BCE (and perhaps earlier) until the collapse of this form of high culture ca. 1200 BCE. These texts preserve our earliest examples of the Greek language, pre-dating our earliest alphabetic texts (inscriptions and literary texts) by over four centuries. Formative aims: The aims of this course are five: 1/ To familiarize ourselves with the structure of Linear B script in relationship to other writing systems used to represent Greek (i.e., the Cypriote Syllabic Script and the Greek alphabet) and to consider how well Linear B worked as a vehicle for recording Greek as 'visible speech'; 2/ To understand the syntax and system of communication of the ca. 5,000 Linear B texts; 3/ To sample the lexicon and phonology and morphology of Mycenaean Greek and the relationship of the Mycenaean 'dialect' to the later historical Greek dialects, including Homer; 1 4/ To understand Mycenaean Greek culture through the contents of the tablets in relationship with archaeologiccal discoveries; 5/ To learn how to 'read' historical texts. Competences Classics Applying the acquired grammar knowledge to the analysis and comprehension of Greek and Latin texts. Obtaining information from the study of written Greek and Latin sources, that allow to access several aspects of the realia (sociocultural reality of the ancient world). Students must be capable of applying their knowledge to their work or vocation in a professional way and they should have building arguments and problem resolution skills within their area of study. Students must develop the necessary learning skills in order to undertake further training with a high degree of autonomy. Learning Outcomes 1. Applying techniques in order to quickly and completely understand texts in Greek. 2. Applying the notions of Indo-European linguistics to the corresponding knowledge of the Greek or Latin language. 3. Arguing and contrasting information coming from written sources and information of archaeological origin in relation with historical processes or facts. 4. Autonomously searching, selecting and processing information both from structured sources (databases, bibliographies, specialized magazines) and from across the network. 5. Detecting and extracting historical and cultural relevant data from ancient sources. 6. Locate truthful and meaningful to the reading and interpretation of literary texts or epigraphic information. 7. Using epigraphic texts as historical and literary sources. 8. Using in an efficient and autonomous manner the basic philological tools. 9. Using specialised databases in order to obtain information about literature and ancient epigraphy. Content 1. Introduction to the 2nd-millennium Aegean. 2. How writing developed in and around Greece: Cretan Hieroglyphic, Minoan Linear A, Mycenaesn Linear B, Cypro-Minoan writing, Cypriote Syllabic Script, the Greek alphabet. 3. Chronology, typology and content-classification of Linear B texts. 4. The Linear B writing system: structure and operating principles in relationship to the Greek language (1400-1200 BCE). 5. Mycenaean Greek phonetics and phonology. 6. Mycenaean Greek morphology. 7. Mycenaean Greek lexicon and syntax. 8. Mycenaean Greek dialect. 9. The contents of Linear B texts and general features of Mycenaean civilization: social and political structure, cult and religion, economy, warfare, general assessment of the strengths and weaknesses of palatial culture. Some attention will be paid to important issues of current scholarship: the status of Mycenaean scribes and literacy; personal names and place names (onomastics, prosopography and toponymics); the organization of 2 literacy; personal names and place names (onomastics, prosopography and toponymics); the organization of the Mycenaean economy; divine names in Linear B, especiallly at Thebes; kingship; regionalism in the Mycenaean palatial period. N.B.: There are two compulsory readings in this subject: a book and a book's chapter, detailed in the "Assessment" section, which will be reviewed. Methodology After the preliminary explanations by the teacher of the first four topics listed in the previous section, the methodology will consist of periodic assignments for students to work on Mycenaean Greek texts and analyze them according to the themes we are considering, following the pattern which the teacher will have been previously given them. These inscriptions will be used to explain the other topics of the subject (5-9), referring to the Mycenaean Greek dialect and to the features of the Mycenaean civilization. Regarding the compulsory readings, the students will have to elaborate small assignments to prove they have read each one of the readings.

In lectures the students will do different analyses of Mycenaean Greek texts in order to explain the subject's contents. It is very important that students take into account that regular lecture participation and the elaboration, submission of the exercises, translations and several activities proposed in class, will also be considered part of the evaluation. The students will write an individual paper consisting of an analysis and commentary of a coherent group of Mycenaean inscriptions, previously chosen in agreement with the teacher. This paper will be submitted at the end of the course, and will also be orally presented to the rest of the students during 20 minutes. The student will also write two reviews of the following compulsory readings: - M. S. Ruipérez; J. L. Melena, Los griegos micénicos , Madrid 1990. 3 - M. S. Ruipérez; J. L. Melena, Los griegos micénicos , Madrid 1990. - C. W. Shelmerdine, "Mycenaean society", en A Companion to Linear B... , vol. 1, pp. 115-158. Those students that have submitted two activities, will not be able to renounce the assessment; in other words, s/he will not receive the grade "no avaluable" (impossible to assess) as a final qualification. It is essential to obtain a minimum score of 4/10 in each one of the assessment activities in order to make the final average grade. The final grade needs to be at least 5/10 to pass the subject. Only those students who have failed any exam or review with a mark lesser than 4/10 or those who have not achieved an average grade of 5/10 will be able to reassess the subject. Besides the lecture exercises, it will only be possible to reassess the mark of two assessment activities. The final score of any reassessment or review, that will be submitted on the reassessment day, will be "5". In the event of a student committing any irregularity that may leadto a significant variation in the grade awarded to an assessment activity, the student will be given a zero for this activity, regardless of any disciplinary process that may take place. In the event of several irregularities in assessment activities of the same subject, the student will be given a zero as the final grade for this subject. In the event that tests or exams cannot be taken onsite, they will be adapted to an online format made available through the UAB's virtual tools (original weighting will be maintained). Homework, activities and class participation will be carried out through forums, wikis and/or discussion on Teams, etc. Lecturers will ensure that students are able to access these virtual tools, or will offer them feasible alternatives.

  • Wanaks and Related Power Terms in Mycenaean and Later Greek
    2 WANAKS AND RELATED POWER TERMS IN MYCENAEAN AND LATER GREEK Thomas G Palaima There have been numerous advances in scholarship 1 (since Carlier, Royaute and 2 Palaima 1995 ) affecting the interpretation of the two lexical items (wa-na-ka = later wanaks and qa-si-re-u = later basileus) and related terms (e.g., lawagetas and e-ke-ra 2-wo) associated with the concept 'king' within Greek language and culture. Here I shall deal with them systematically under various subject headings that I hope are more than arbitrary. My main aim is to demonstrate that the most recently proposed etymologies of the term wanaks either confuse the functions of the wanaks within the Mycenaean texts for the essential meaning (and ideologi­ cal basis) of the word itself or are attractive as explanations for the meaning of the term, but ultimately unconvincing in accounting for its history. I argue that the essential meaning of the wanaks has to do, as in Hittite, with 'birth , begetting and fertility' and then with 'lineage'. 3 I then discuss many aspects of the attested functions of the wanaks in Mycenaean society. THE ETYMOLOGY OF WA-NA-KA, QA-SI-RE-U AND E-KE-RAi-WO: LINEAR B, HITTITE AND HOMER There are no convincing, that is, widely accepted, lndo-European etymologies of the Mycenaean terms wa-na-ka (later Greek civa~) and qa-si-re-u (later Greek I dedicate this paper to the late Kees Ruijgh whose scholarly erudition , integrity , deep human­ ity and generosity are sorely missed by all of us who still work at the Mycenaean texts that he understood so deeply and explicated so clearly.

The records cover the Interwar period and provide us with demographic (gender, age, place of origin, place of residence, marital status, occupation) and medical (diagnoses, outcomes, time of hospitalization) aspects of tuberculosis. In fact, the three sanatoriums reflect different social classes but with a common characteristic: all are vulnerable to the same disease. The records of the patients are a valuable source of study and provide us with data of social and economic interest Antonopoulou, Zetta, The historical records of the Athens Municipal Hospital “ELPIS” The ELPIS Municipal Hospital was the first hospital in the young capital. Since its founding (1842) and throughout its long history, it has played an important role in the health of citizens, the development of science and the medical capabilities of the country. Managed administratively by the City of Athens for more than a century, the hospital treated equally civilians, war-wounded, refugees and thousands of anonymous poor in difficult historical periods, as during the German Occupation.

This work is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution International License (CC BY). http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Abstract Greece’s economic crisis has deepened despite the measures taken by the international commu- nity in 2010. The Greek economy shrank by 20% between 2008 and 2012 without evidence of growth in 2014. The unemployment was 24.3% in 2012 (7.7% in 2008) and now the maximum rate of long-term unemployment went up to 14.4% [1]. The growing pressure from the Greek gov- ernments especially the hospitals budget cuts creates pressure on the effectiveness and efficiency, devastating the Greek healthcare system. Economic crisis in combination with the continuous growth of hospital costs services on one hand and the pressure by patients themselves for lower cost and better treatment on the other, has driven governments in Greece, to restructure the hos- pital sector (known as “hospital mergers”).

Introduction Greece’s economic crisis has deepened despite the measures taken by the international community in 2010. The Greek government-debt crisis started in late 2009 later referred to collectively as the European debt crisis.

We aimed to estimate prevalence and age at diagnosis in Greece, where no large-scale prevalence study has ever been conducted. Aggregate data were collected on ASD diagnoses by gender and calendar year of diagnosis up to 2019, for children born in 2008 and 2009, from the Centers for Educational and Counseling Support, which evaluate children to receive special educational support in school. Coverage was 87.1% of centers and 88.1% of schoolchildren born in 2008–9. ASD prevalence overall was 1.15% (1.83% males, 0.44% females; ratio 4.14:1), ranging from 0.59% to 1.50% in Greece’s 13 regions. In five regions, prevalence differed significantly between centers.

The overall objective of the ENIGMMA 2 project is to contribute to the sustainable enhancement of mobility and people-to-people contacts between the EU and Georgia. The study follows the specific objective of the Component 2 of the project to implement joint measures to mitigate, target and address identified and possible migration related risks of visa liberalisation in Georgia and the EU Member States by providing support to Georgian migrants abroad. To this end, the report describes the existing provisions of the national migration legislation in the three destination countries - EU MS (Greece, Italy and Spain), and analyses the profile of Georgian diaspora, including their expressed needs, interests and challenges. Further, the study discusses how the situation of Georgian migrants in three destination countries has changed after the enactment of the visa-free regime between Schengen countries and Georgia. The study is based on the desk research, information gathered during the assessment and exchange missions to Greece, Italy and Spain, meetings with the national stakeholders in Georgia and destination countries, interviews and focus group discussions with the representatives of Georgian diaspora organisations and active diaspora
